If anything, you should read my comments as praise for accomplishing an up-hill task so well.
Dear Sterling:
I did misinterpret your comments, and thank you for be so thoughtful as to clarify. We did work hard on promoting the story, and I appreciate your compliment. Sorry for the misunderstanding.
My P.R. specialist called me yesterday, and said how well it all went, and how lucky we were that there was no other *major* news story to compete with ours. It was a statement very similar to your observation, and something with which we certainly have to agree. Steve has noted that each time there is a big meteorite story, it seems to suddenly get overshadowed by an even bigger news story -- Park Forest being a perfect example, as you reminded us the other day. So, I guess we got by okay on this one, with no new war or major calamity : )
We're working on website for the big Brenham with a lot of new photos, and I hope to be able to share that with the List very soon.
Meanwhile, the "King of the Pallasites" will be on display this weekend -- Saturday and Sunday, Nov. 19 and 20 -- at the Tulsa Air and Space Museum for anyone who might be in the neighborhood: http://www.tulsaairandspacemuseum.com
Steve will be there too, of course, and no doubt dazzling hordes of school children with tales from the world of meteorites.
Thanks again and best to all, Geoff N. ______________________________________________ Meteorite-list mailing list Meteorite-list@meteoritecentral.com http://six.pairlist.net/mailman/listinfo/meteorite-list
